International rope rescue teams compete in Chongqing

He noted that Jinfo Mountain — located in a typical karst landform area with mountains, valleys, rock faces, forests and bridges — can simulate different rescue scenarios.

The tournament, launched in 2018, is said to be China's first professional international rope rescue competition.
